Answer: 72 u^2

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

What we know:

  • Both triangles are identical
  • Both rectangles are different
  • There are values in units^2 given
  • There are right angles

How to solve:

We need to find the area of at least one of the triangles and double it. Then, we need to find the areas of both rectangles. Finally, we need to add these areas to find the total area. The final area will be represented in units squared (u^2)

<h2>Process:</h2>

Triangles

Set up equation                                                 A = 1/2(bh)

Substitute                                                           A = 1/2(4*3)

Simplify                                                               A = 1/2(12)

Solve                                                                   A = 6

Double                                                                     *2

                                                                           A = 12 u^2

Rectangles

Set up equation                                                 A = lh

Substitute                                                           A = (14)(3)

Simplify                                                               A = 42 u^2

Set up equation                                                 A = lh

Substitute                                                           A = [14-(4+4)](3)

Simplify                                                               A = (14-8)(3)

Simplify                                                               A = (6)(3)

Multiply                                                               A = 18 u^2

Total Area

Set up equation                                                 A = R1+R2+T

Substitute                                                           A = 42 + 18 + 12

Simplify                                                               A = 60 + 12

Solve                                                                   A = 72 u^2

<h3>Answer: 72 u^2</h3>

The product of two consecutive positive integers is 56. Find the two integers
vredina [299]

Answer:

Two consecutive integers are of the form

x and x + 1

Their product is equal to 56

x(x + 1) = 56

Solve and find the two numbers x and x + 1. The above equation may be written as follows

x2 + x - 56 = 0

Factor and solve

(x - 7)(x + 8) = 0

solutions: x = 7 , x = -8

x= - 8 is not valid since the number sought must be positive. Hence

x = 7 and x + 1 = 8 are the two consecutive numbers.

Someone help?!.........
koban [17]
Answer: y = -2x + 16

Explanation:

Use point slope form:

(y1 - y) = m(x1 - x)

y1 = 6 and x1 = 5 and m = -2

6 - y = -2(5 - x)
6 - y = -10 + 2x
-y = 2x - 10 - 6
-y = 2x - 16
y = -2x + 16
